Two Trainees Earn Top Resident Teacher Award

one gold star among many silver stars

Congratulations to residents Katarina Fleckenstein, MD (PGY-3), and Emily Frisch, MD (PGY-3), who have earned the Top Resident Teacher Clerkship Award for the Ob/Gyn Clerkship within the Cleveland Clinic’s Women’s Health Institute, June through August 2023.

Under the leadership of Ob/Gyn Clerkship Directors Diane Young, MD, Assistant Professor of Ob/Gyn & Reproductive Biology, and Stacie Jhaveri, MD, Clinical Assistant Professor of Ob/Gyn & Reproductive Biology, the program provides this formal opportunity to appreciate and recognize its top resident teachers for each clerkship session with a lapel pin that can be proudly displayed on their white coats. The program recognizes at least four resident teachers during the course of every academic year.

“We’re delighted to recognize our incredible ob/gyn residents for their hard work, dedication and commitment to undergraduate medical education,” says Dr. Young.

The Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University students who completed the June-August 2023 Inpatient Ob/Gyn Clerkship voted for one top resident teacher. The collective votes resulted in a two-way tie.

Congratulations again to our residents on a job well done!

Katarina Fleckenstein, MD

Emily Frisch, MD
